        In depth

        Verdict

        Jenga, Circus Maximus and Dalus Park should all go well in this novices' handicap chase, but we will take a chance on Radcliffe. The gelding from the Venetia Williams yard ran well for a long way when finishing fifth behind Dear Deal at Kempton last time. He once again has the useful claimer Sam Thomas in the plate and if he can show a slight improvement on that last run, he could go well at an each-way price. Jenga ran as though something was amiss last time and is an obvious danger if all is well after a short break, while Circus Maximus was a winner over hurdles last time but had previously won over this course and distance when defeating Paco Venture. This looks tougher but he has decent place prospects Of the remainder, Dalus Park was pulled-up after reportedly losing his action last time although he would have chances on his previous form, but in a competitive event, we will make Radcliffe our tentative choice.
